What to expect from Boruto episode 273?
With Himawari’s help, Kawaki and the rest of Hana’s class concluded that Kae had not been murdered by their teacher. With the desire to save her, the students ran after the pair, ready to face Hana if needed.
Sadly, Dark Hana’s reinforcements are about to arrive on the island, which means that Kawaki does not have much time to defeat the assassin.
Thankfully, the boy will not have to fight alone, as the rest of the class will be right by his side. Based on the preview for Boruto episode 273, we can assume that the students will ignore Kawaki’s orders to stay behind. The kids want to ensure that all their friends return home unharmed and will use all their power to make certain that no one ends up dead.
In the previous episode, we saw that the kids are exponentially more skilled than we first believed. This upcoming episode will likely give the rest of Himawari’s class a chance to shine. Up until now, Kawaki and Himawari have been the main focus of the arc. The show may want to center around the rest of the students before Kae returns to the Land of Bamboo.
Lastly, there is a chance that Boruto episode 273 will not involve a big fight between Hana and her students. The preview for the episode showed the woman struggling to keep her good side under control. If the entire class reminds the teacher of their good moments together, Dark Hana could be locked inside the black-haired woman’s head once again.
What happened in the last episode?
Boruto episode 272 began with Kawaki and Himawari explaining to their friends that Hana had attacked Kae. Despite seeing the woman use a Kunai against the girl, Himawari was certain that Kae was still alive. This theory was confirmed later in the episode, as Kae was seen as Hana’s hostage inside a cave.
With the help of their classmates, Kawaki and Himawari managed to find the cave where the princess was being kept hostage. The black-haired boy thanked his friends for helping him and asked them to stay behind. Kae tried to escape and was about to be attacked by Hana. In the last second, Kawaki kicked the woman in the head, ready to fight her once again.
